Chapter 9: Excellent Food
Yun Ye walked out of the cafeteria on his own, thinking about the information he had just obtained in the cafeteria.
Just now he asked about the price. Although ordinary food is free, the problem lies in "ordinary food".
What if it is not ordinary?
"Hehe... Although you can eat whatever you want, the human stomach is so big, how much can you eat?"
"Those excellent foods that are really beneficial to cultivation all require money. If the talent is not good enough, ordinary food alone cannot awaken the spiritual roots. Even if it is the lowest-level excellent food, I am afraid my family will not be able to maintain it for long."
"Hey, money is everything. Those big families never worry about not having food!"
This is what several freshmen with a little bit of family background talked about.
After entering Xian Academy, there is indeed a glimmer of hope to awaken the spiritual roots, but people are completely different.
Some people leap over the dragon gate in the first year and become masters of awakening spiritual roots.
And some people practice until the age of sixteen, are abandoned by Xian Academy, and have no shadow at all, and cannot even half awaken.
The difference, in addition to talent, also has the factor of resources.
Top-level resources can even ignore qualifications and instantly awaken spiritual roots. How much time can this save?
Unfortunately, these are too far away from ordinary people. Currently, Yun Ye can only access one kind of resources.
That is "excellent food"!
Cultivation is to absorb nutrition to strengthen oneself. How much you can eat is directly related to the growth rate!
But how big can a person's stomach be?
Even if you eat as much as you want, it is impossible to digest infinitely. You can only wait and waste a lot of time.
And excellent food is born for this reason.
As food made by special techniques, excellent food concentrates a lot of life energy. The better the quality, the more life energy it can provide, and the more obvious the effect of cultivating qi will be.
It is said that the top-level excellent food is added with spiritual medicine. Eating it for a month can directly awaken the spiritual roots.
Unfortunately, it is a sky-high price, and only a few masters can make it. Ordinary families dare not hope for it.
"Excellent food?"
Yun Ye pondered.
He asked about the price before, but even the most common cultivation resources are still not affordable for ordinary people.
The food is divided into four levels: A, B, C, and D.
Level D is the lowest, with 10 black coppers per serving, equal to 3 servings of ordinary food.
Level C, 30 black coppers per serving, equal to 5 servings of ordinary food.
Level B, 100 black coppers per serving, equal to 7 servings of ordinary food.
Level A, 3 silvers per serving, equal to 10 servings of ordinary food.
One silver is equal to 100 black coppers.
Level A food, two meals, would cost the Yang family a lifetime of savings, which is a sky-high price for Yun Ye.
…
Yun Ye returned to his residence.
The word "Bing Qi" in this world constantly reminded Yun Ye that a new chapter had begun, and he had temporarily left the bottom of this world.
Yun Ye took a deep breath and opened the door.
After walking in and looking around for a moment, Yun Ye closed the doors and windows and untied the package that had been tied to his body.
When it was spread out, there were first one or two pieces of clothes, and then a total of 51 black copper coins.
Yun Ye touched his swollen belly.
According to Yun Ye's estimation, even if he ate too much every meal, the spiritual substances he absorbed would only be enough for him to practice the Qi-nourishing Technique twice more.
In other words, five times a day.
If he forced himself to practice for the sixth time, his body would feel hungry, but his stomach could not eat anything. In simple terms, the residue had not been digested yet.
The only way to increase the number of practice times is to eat well.
The lowest level of D-level good food, one portion is equal to three portions, which can directly increase Yun Ye's training from five times a day to fifteen times a day!
This is not a simple three-fold increase!
Life energy will dissipate. Yun Ye practiced three times a day, but in fact, half of the results disappeared with time.
If he could practice more, he would dissipate less, and he could accumulate life energy faster, and then jump over the dragon gate and awaken the spiritual root!
Unlike forcibly opening, opening when the body is strong and the life force is sufficient, his vitality will not be lost. This is the right way.
The true self-revitalization of spiritual roots should be that the body has not been trained, but the life level of the body has reached a level that is sufficient to awaken the spiritual roots.
Relying on life-and-death crisis and extreme emotions to forcibly awaken the spiritual roots, even if successful, it will not last long.
This is Yun Ye's most intuitive feeling about the revival of spiritual roots.
The feeling of constantly burning vitality and approaching death step by step will make people anxious and almost crazy.
Even Yun Ye does not want to experience it again.
He hopes to cultivate the Qi-nourishing Technique to perfection in this life, and then actively awaken the spiritual roots!
If you want to speed up this step, you can only find a way to make money.
As long as you can eat Grade A food, I am afraid that you can really awaken the spiritual roots in a short time.
(Speaking of which, is Grade A a masterpiece of excellent food? It is highly likely not, because Grade A can be provided in large quantities in the cafeteria.)
Yun Ye couldn't help but be curious. Grade A can provide ten times the nutrition, how much stronger will it be?
Fifteen times? Or twenty times?
After thinking about it carefully, he suddenly realized that the advantages of rich people are really huge. No wonder this thing is called "superior food". It's true. Every bowl of food is an advantage!
...
The next day, a young man in gray came to knock on the door. After Yun Ye opened the door, he took the list and said: "Yang Shi from Mingzhu Village? Eight years old this year? Can't read?"
"..."
Yun Ye nodded.
"It seems to be right. If you can't read, you can go to the literacy hall to learn characters first. Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't learn. It may be better for you to practice Qi cultivation and various fighting techniques directly, so as not to be demoted and reduced in salary at the end of the year."
The young man in gray sneered. He had seen many civilians, some willing to learn and some unwilling.
However, the results will not be too high.
Those who are willing to learn characters waste a lot of time, resulting in insufficient grades in regular courses and a vicious cycle of downgraded treatment.
Those who don't learn characters work hard to practice martial arts. Although they can survive the first few years, once they cannot awaken their spiritual roots, they will be sent back to the countryside immediately and have no subsequent use value.
Yang Shu is this type.
Of course...
There are also those who survived and awakened their spiritual roots.
Although they are still cannon fodder, they can already lead their family into Baishi Town and leap up the social ladder.
This is the lifelong pursuit of most people.
He, Ma Zhi, fell at this last step, and even fell into debt until now.
Ma Zhi was annoyed by the freshmen and said coldly: "Follow me, I will take you to various schools next."
Yun Ye nodded.
His origin is indeed a huge flaw, which made him not accumulate much foundation.
In his first life, he was a serf, and in his second life he was just an ordinary hunter, with no way to master writing.
However, he is only eight years old now, and is at the stage with the strongest energy and learning ability.
After reincarnation, both his mentality and body have improved, and Nirvana has reached the best state.
Especially his mentality. Even though he was extremely depressed in the last life, it did not affect this life. Yun Ye just remembered that kind of resentment firmly and waited for the opportunity to explode.
As for the body, according to research, children's brains are indeed easier to remember than adults.
However, as they grow up and no longer need to learn a lot, their brains will gradually degenerate and their learning ability will weaken.
This degeneration is irreversible, and it cannot be delayed by using the brain frequently.
Most people feel that their thinking is rigid and their learning ability is weaker than that of children. It is just the objective law of the human body and has little to do with rigid thinking.
Yun Ye has a new body after his rebirth, and his learning ability has naturally returned to its peak state.
With the self-control ability of an adult, and the most abundant energy and learning ability, Yun Ye still has confidence in himself.
First, set a goal to fight through the first year without being demoted!
…
The entire Xian Academy is very large, and there are even several large martial arts arenas for students to practice fighting and nourishing qi.
The gray-clothed young man took Yun Ye to three places in total.
They are the Literacy Hall for literacy.
The Yangqi Hall for learning the art of nourishing qi.
The martial arts hall for teaching fighting.
At the end, the gray-clothed youth threw Yun Ye a black uniform, which was said to be the uniform of this school.
Free.
"Tomorrow, the spiritual law adjutant Liu Quan will come to the school to give a lecture. The lecture will officially start at that time. You should understand the consequences of being late..."
Ma Zhi left this sentence and left directly.
Yun Ye was thoughtful.
The government does not seem to be harmonious?
An adjutant actually came to such an important place as the school to give a lecture. Is he training a team for himself?
